You have written a very interesting and informative note as well as providing a delightful photograph to illustrate it.

I love the conntrast between the old and new architecture - the long regular rows of windows in the plain facade of the building on the right contrasting beautifully with the old cathedral tower behind it. You have captured the scene perfectly, the buildings lit in glorious light while the narrow street is in relative shade. The little red sports car in the foreground leads us into the image perfectly.

Quite a different view of Colmar than what we've seen recently, this is much more traditional French stylings. Wonderful play of light down this street, and as you mention, the contrast of architecture is compelling. A composition well arranged that plays to the strengths of your subjects and perspective. Tough sunlight to expose, but you've found a nice balance to showcase all of the necessary highlights. Perfectly suited for a vertical format, this is indeed a fine result! Bonne journée. All the best.

Bonjour Roland,
I like very much how this intriguing graphical view fits in the tight vertical frame. The tight composition sets off an attractive play of perspectives. I like the multiple framing of the belfry and how old and modern features coexist so naturally. The colours and the shadows add to the graphical impression and the red car adds dynamism and makes the foreground inviting. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great evening,
Ourania
